[NMLUG] Sony and Nintendo roll out new handheld game "consoles?"

Out of curiosity, I managed to find some specs on the Sony device -- PSP 
CPU 1-333MHz (variable?), 32MB RAM.

The Nintendo comes with two CPUs, if I'm reading that right, an ARM7 and 
an ARM9.... I assume it has memory.

Wanna make predictions on how long it takes for someone to book Linux on 
one or both?

Wonder if a) there's going to be a way to expand the memory, and b) if 
they'll each roll out a 2nd generation unit with more RAM.

It would be kind of cool to see the things these might be capable under 
Linux, IF they have as much horse power as I think they'll have.
